[Referral Partners](https://support.afterschoolhq.com/knowledge/referral-partners?hsLang=en) # Referral Partners Support Article for Payouts ## To ensure you receive compensation for your role as a referral partner with AfterSchool HQ, all you need to do is complete a few steps. **Creating a Personal AHQ Account** While you might already have an account associated with your organization, **this personal account will be linked to your personal Stripe account**, which in turn is linked to your personal bank account. **Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:**   Create a Personal AHQ Account: If you haven't already, ensure you have a personal AHQ account set up. This account will be linked to your personal Stripe account, which is connected to your personal bank account. Make sure to use a unique email address that you haven't used for your organization's AHQ account. If you encounter any issues during account setup, feel free to reach out to our support team. **Important Note:** If you want your referral partner funds to be sent to your organization’s account, you do not have to create a personal account. Just make sure your Organization account’s bank information is where you want your funds to go. Feel free to skip the next steps if this scenario applies to you – you're good to go! **If you do not want your referral partner funds being sent to your organization bank account, please follow the next steps:** Ensure Email Usage Compliance: It's essential to use a personal email address during the signup process. This ensures smooth account setup and facilitates future transitions if you decide to create an organizational AHQ account later on. Failure to follow these steps will result in an error during the AHQ account setup process.   1. Getting started is easy!
